Wicketkeeper-batsman Umar Akmal has been out of the Pakistan cricket team for quite a long time now. The last time he represented his country was way back in January 2017. Since then, he has been working hard to get back into the team.

The right-hand batsman has played 116 ODIs, scoring 3044 runs including 2 hundreds. He has represented Pakistan in 82 T20Is and has scored 1690 runs.
